I first heard about bitcoins some time ago, and more or less ignored it. Now I'm wishing I'd paid a little more attention back then. In any case, I'm looking to get started in the world of bitcoins now and finding it it difficult to break the initial trust barrier in a timely manner. The fact that my payment method would be via PayPal does not appear to help. Considering that the market has basically doubled in 2 days, I'd like to get at least a few bitcoins quickly.

Please PM if interested in selling a bitcoin or two. Currently the market is ~$18/BTC; I'll pay $20/BTC. I can provide an eBay handle to demonstrate some trust history.

Edit: Closed. I now have a stake in 1/21000000th of the potential bitcoin economy

Yeah, I guess PP has its issues. I've been waiting for verification from bitmarket, but wanted to at least get one to play around with. I'm happy for now. (Found someone to trade with on IRC #bitcoin-otc).
